Understanding a Diagnosis of Down Syndrome. There are two types of tests for Down syndrome that can be performed before your baby is born: screening tests and diagnostic tests. Prenatal screenings estimate the chance of the fetus having Down syndrome. These tests do not tell you for sure whether your fetus has Down syndrome; they only provide a probability. Diagnostic tests, on the other hand, can provide a definitive diagnosis with almost 100% accuracy. There is an extensive menu of prenatal screening tests now available for pregnant women.
These consist of: 1  Nuchal translucency scan. This estimates the possibility of your baby having downs syndrome. 2  A blood test. This test detects the level of plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and hormone human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG).
